QxMD Privacy Policy

We recognize that when you choose to provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner. We take this trust very seriously, and that’s why we have put a policy in place to protect your personal information. This policy allows us to document our commitment to you that we will not sell or share your personally identifiable information, including your name or email address without your permission or as required by law.

The QxMD Privacy Policy set out below describes our policies and practices regarding the information we collect from you, how we use that information, and our commitment to you to safeguard that information.

1. What information does QxMD collect?

We may request that you supply us voluntarily with personal information.

Generally this information is requested when you register our mobile software. For example:

When you register with QxMD, we ask for demographic and contact information including your email address, country of practice profession, and specialty so that we can provide you with more customized service and information, as well as contact you in the event of important announcements about our products or services.

2. How does QxMD use the information we collect?

We use the information we collect to improve our products and services and provide you with the best possible user experience.

In order to make sure we are targeting the most relevant content to our subscribers, we need to understand who our subscribers are and collect information that will assist us in tailoring subscribers’ experiences.

We also use this information to contact you regarding relevant QxMD services and products. For instance, we may contact you by email to let you know that we have released a new product or service or a new version of an existing product.

3. Does QxMD track your use of its products?

We track your usage of our downloaded software products in an anonymous fashion. We collect aggregate data on usage of our online clinical calculators in order to improve our subscriber experience and to prioritize new product development.

4. How does QxMD protect your information?

QxMD safeguards the security of the data you send us with physical, electronic, and managerial procedures.

These procedures include limiting access to the information in various ways depending on the nature of the information as well as training our employees on the proper handling of subscriber information. While we believe we have taken appropriate measures to protect the information that we have received, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet.

5. Will QxMD share the information it collects with others?

Does not share or sell our subscribers’ names, email addresses or contact information;

Does not disclose the identity of our subscribers; and

Does not disclose information on how subscribers are using QxMD products except in aggregate or non-personally identifiable form.

QxMD may provide aggregate or non-personally identifiable statistics about our customers, product usage or traffic patterns, and related website information, but these statistics will not include any personally identifying information.

Note: QxMD may disclose personal information as allowed or required by applicable law, including making disclosures that are necessary or advisable to: (a) protect the rights, safety or property of subscribers of our website and products, the public, or QxMD, and (b) conform to legal or regulatory requirements. No other disclosures of personally identifiable information will be made without your prior consent.

6. How does QxMD use “cookies” and log files?

“Cookies” are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies on our website to help us provide you with a more personalized experience. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to prevent that if you would rather not store the information for future use. Disabling cookies in your browser, however, may prevent access to some parts of our website.

As is true of most websites, we gather and use certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp. We use this information to analyze trends, to administer the website, to track users’ movements around the website and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our website.

7. How does QxMD link with other websites?

The QxMD website contains links to and from other websites. QxMD does not share your personal information with those websites and is not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to learn about the privacy policies of those companies.

Please note that our site uses sponsored Google advertisments. We advise you to review Google’s privacy policy to understand how they use your data and data from our site to generate targetted advertising for you.

8. Is this privacy statement subject to change?

Yes. The QxMD Privacy Policy is subject to change at any time.

By using our website, you consent to the collection and use of this information by QxMD as disclosed in this statement. If we decide to materially change our privacy practices, we will post a prominent notice of those changes on the homepage and/or send an email so that you are always kept informed of what data we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. Please check this page for changes from time to time to make sure you are aware of our latest privacy practices.

9. Important Terms

In this policy, when we use the term “we” or “our”, we mean both QxMD and third parties with whom QxMD contracts to assist in its business operations. These contractors may, however, only access your information in furtherance of their services to QxMD and may not use or disclose your information except as permitted by QxMD.

What is “personally identifiable” information?

When reviewing any privacy policy on the Internet, you should be familiar with the terms “personally identifiable” and “non-personally identifiable” information. “Personally identifiable information” is any information that can be used to identify, contact or locate you as an individual, as well as any additional data tied to such information. Common examples are your name and email address. Non-personally identifiable information is information — either in “profile” or “aggregate” form — that, in contrast, is not intended to identify you as an individual.

How to send us feedback

Our goal is to respect your privacy and we encourage user feedback to help us improve our privacy policies. If you have any questions or suggestions about this privacy statement, please contact us at: contact@qxmd.com.
